Pike Station

An abandoned gas station was transformed into an ecological live-work community, Pike Station provides a model for neighborhood-scale infill housing with a communal focus. Sustainability was paramount in the design, with special attention given to the collection and recycling of water, embracing the enriching fall of Pacific Northwest rain.Situated on a corner site on the commercial strip of Seattle’s Madrona neighborhood, Pike Station comprises seven loft units with small commercial spaces below. The L-shaped building is oriented around a communal courtyard, where residents and commercial tenants can gather.
